Verify Jetdirect Print Server Operation

1.Print a Jetdirect Configuration page and check for status messages.

In most printers, a Jetdirect Configuration page will automatically print when you print a Printer Configuration page. See your printer documentation for instructions.

In HP Designjet printers, Jetdirect configuration information will be included on the Service Configuration print.

2.In the first section of the Jetdirect Configuration Page, look for the status message “I/O CARD READY”. See Figure 2-2.

This section of the configuration page also contains product- specific information, such as:

HP Jetdirect product number

Firmware revision number

LAN Hardware (MAC) address

Manufacturing identification number

3.If I/O CARD READY appears, the card has been installed successfully. Proceed to If Required, Configure Jetdirect With Your Network Settings.

If I/O CARD READY does not appear, check that you have:

Installed the print server correctly and properly connected the print server to the network

Verified that the network is operating properly

You can turn the printer off and then on again to reinitialize the print server and try again.
